Update BlackBerry address book of the

Hello world

I want to fill the categories field values (staff / business) in the address book for Blackberry through java code.

I went through the API for BlackBerryContact, but there is no attribute to store the category field (it is possible that I can have forgotten some of the attributes).

Please advice on this matter.

Thanks in advance

Hi all, I found the solution to the problem. Just add the extract below to add it to a particular category of contactobj.addToCategory (String category) best regards, Sushil.

  • Restore 10 via Blackberry Protect blackBerry address book

    I recently lost my Bold 9900, which was protected by Blackberry Protect. I decided to buy a BB 9720 to replace the Bold 9900. However, I'm unable to transfer the saved 9900 to the 9720 address book because the address book field is grayed out both on the client than on Blackberry Protect. Please advise, I'm dying here.

    Concerning

    Shalegp

    Looks like the address book on the 9720 is in wireless sync with service, might be a BES, Gmail, etc..

    Accounts have been added to the device that support this?  You can try to remove these and then you try to restore.

    As another test, you can try the following:

    1. make a backup of the 9720 - to save the State that you are now

    2 wipe the unit

    3. try to restore it from backup or BlackBerry Protect file

    4. If able successfully to restore your address book and then go to add back accounts

    NOTE: If you are on a BES, you may need to contact the administrator or Help Desk to have a defined activation password.

  • Smartphones blackBerry - address book sync error

    A few weeks ago, I posted an error from my 9700.  When it's new, I had no problem sending my old 9000 info to it.  I have even to synchronize several times.  then something happened, don't know what it was, but now every time I have edit a contact on the 9700, or add a new one for it and then try to sync, I get a message from incorrect data.  someone suggested to delete the address book of the unit or recharge it from a backup, that works well as long as u don't change or add something new.  so now I have to remember what changes I did my 9700 and manually their shot of punch in my future, instead of being able to sync.   any ideas... anyone?  Thank you!

    Try this, I did some of my friends and it worked.

    Start the Blackberry Desktop Manager.

    GoTo synchronization, sync and then select address book.

    Then click on advanced.

    Goto field mapping.

    Disable the photo of the field mapping.

    Once your done, you should be able to sync your contacts.

  • How to open the address book in the address book already used?

    Previous versions of ThunderBird would open for the last opened address book address books. Now, it always opens to the gathered addresses. Can I make it open to the specific address book that I used last time?

    If you use the latest version 38.2.0
    Previously, the 'address book' would always open on the default "personal address book" value as it was the top of the list.

    Then, after many requests by a group of people who wanted to be able to search all their address books in a go, a virtual address book called "All address books" was created.

    This meant it would always default to opening on the ' address books all the "whenever you opened the 'address book' even in the same session of thunderbird.
    A bug request has been filed requesting the opportunity to be able to establish a default address book of choice, and it is developing.

    At the same time, we discovered that the window 'write' Contacts Sidebar me remember a selected address book providing Thunderbird had not been closed - only not forget in this session. Thus, they are also looking to set a default address for this as well, so that Contacts sidebar does not auto by default to "All address books" every time thunderbird is closed and the end of the session.

    The ' address books all the ' currently showing all of all your books address including "collected addresses".

  • How can I move some of my contacts in my personal address book in the list of "collected addresses"?

    All addresses in my contact list are under "personal address book" and none in "collected addresses". The personal address book is too long and fill to the top with addresses I rarely (if ever) use. I prefer the new addresses that are automatically added enter the list "collected addresses" and would like to transfer addresses rarely used in this list.

    The collected book adds all start addresses and gets big Rapids. But if that's what you want drag you and drop contacts between books.
    Select the folder of personal book, so it appears in the main window
    Select the contacts to move. Hold down the CTRL key while clicking to select multiple.
    Drag the contacts to the new book folder and drop them there.

    You can create a new address books on the file menu in the address book window
    File-new-address book

    It would be more logical for me to create a new book and move contacts unwanted on the personal book.
    The default value when adding new contacts is a book.

  • Several "personal address book" in the Contacts

    As you can see from the screenshots, I have several "personal address book" in the Contacts. Right click on any address book of Contacts and remove it is gray. I have a gMail address book, a special group, I created and collected, too.

    So I have several abook.mab displaying in Windows Explorer; one is 56KO, others are 2kmb. If I move the files, they are recreated everytime I run the application of TB.

    It started when I restored a profile in a clean install of TB. How can I solve this further?

    No additional input or suggestion so I backed up my address book, uninstalled TB, reinstalled TB and imported the .csv backup. This solves the problem, as can be expected.

    Too bad, it was necessary that I had to create, download, and reset all.

  • Transfer the 8830 Smartphones blackBerry address book

    The sudden option address book transfer has stopped working... When you look at the address book transfer option is disabled and there is a small lock next to the word off. I don't know why this happened I can't find anything that shows how to unlock and put this last to enabled. Everything worked fine until noon today. I am a new BB user and have no idea of what I did. One has had this problem or can help.

    Small red lock icon means normally it's a policy restricting what it is you are trying to do.

    This blackberry is connected to your Blackberry Enterprise Server companys? This is whence the it policy.

  • Address book for the transfer of blackBerry Smartphones

    I got a new blackberry to my company because my old had hardware problems.  I would like to transfer my address book from my old to my new blackberry.  When I use the Desktop Manager to do this and make a backup and then proceed to do a restore of the AddressBook is grayed out on the left side. In order to transfer to my new blackberry.

    I even tried the device switch Wizard and he transferred a game that I downloaded from my old blackberry to my new but my address book, calendar, tasks, Notes and password Keeper not transferred. I'm not on an Entreperise of Blackberry server.  She just basically transfer my information from a Blackberry to the new.

    This is the same model (8130) for the Blackberry.  Does anyone have any suggestions.  Thank you

    Oh dear - your new device has a COMPUTER policy. And, since you received the device in your company, you must seek their help because it is most likely that it is this policy that prevents you from doing what you want to...

    Now, if they come back and say "we don't know anything about"... so there are some things that you can do... all are 100% destructive of any data that you have on your BB, then plan on what it is once more "nines"...
